French Fashions Years A9o.

II appears that the rage for gaudy
finery which nowadays is the curse Of
the middle and lower classes is one Of
the outcomes of the present century to
which the fashions OF times past form
q striking contrast. I his is we'll set
forth in Q work on Lies bourgeois
dAutrefois," by NJ. A. Eabeau in which
the author describes ut great length
the fashions of the middle classes. In
the seventeenth century, he says,
scholars were easily recognized by their
dress, which differed from that of the
merchant and nobleman. People Of
the lower middle classes had. as rule,
three suits of clothes-one for winter,
another for summer, and third for
mourning. The different suits were
put on at certain date each year: their
summer garments we're worn from May
ID to the end of October, and the rest
Of the year winter dress was worn.
Mourning was always worn for several
years. Every suit was t.rst worn on
one side, then turned, and finally it was
cut up for ga ments for children. The
sword. originally only worn by mobiles.
was soon assumed by the middle
classes, in many places, unfortunately,
not as an ornament. but as necessary
weapon. On the whole, the middle
classes were very modest in their ap-
parel, with the one exception that their
wigs we're very expensive. The couture
of women was mostly more sensible
than that Of men. At the time of Nine.
de Sevigne and Nine. Pompadour no
high chignons were worn by the women
of the people, but the hair was simply
arranged under caps, bows. or hoods.
The colors mostly worn by these classes
were brown and gray, and even shortly
before the revolution no woman from
the provinces dared to wear white rib
bons, and even colored ones were
looked upon Us eccentric. At the age
of 40 the woman assumed matronly
dress, avoiding light colors and .
youthful cut to her dress. AS q char
acterlstic of the last two centuries M.
Babeau points out that mems dress
was much more costly than women's,
and that, contrary to our present sys-
TEN, the wealth of family was dis
played in the husbands or fathers ap.

Something About Dolls.

Dolls are by no means a modern in
vention. Dolls of baked clay, of wood,
and of other things, have been found in
l. gypt, in tombs, where they have lain
buried since before the time of hrlst.
Dolls are now much more carefully
made than they were in former times,
and great deal of skill is needed in
their manufacture. In the Little town
of Sonneberg. in Germany, hundreds
Of thousands of do Is are manufactured
every year. Most of the dolls are made
out of papier mache, but many fine
ones are made with wax or china heads.
All dolls Of the same size which have
like faces are made in one mold. and
there have to be as mar molds as
there are different kinds of faces. It
takes thirty or forty persons to make o
single doll, as each workman does only
one thing.
In Japan, children have every year
what is called feast of dolls" This
is held only on one day OF the year, at
which time all the dolls that have be-
longed to the family are brought out
from the safe places where they are
usually kept, aud put upon tables with
many nds OF playth ngs. Sometimes
there are more than hundred dolls,
some of which are dark W tn age, for
often dolls two hundred years old are
shown ct this feast. They are dressed
i'll all sorts of ways, some Ike court la
dies and gentlemen, and some like COM
mou ladies and gentlemen. Some of
these dolls are very small, and some
are as large as a little girl. The feast
OF dolls lasts only one day, yet the toys
are shown Tor many days.
Iolls used by ast Indian children
are very different from any in this
country. lhey are made of wood
painted with different colors. ach
doll has o baby in its arms, and is fixed
to q wooden block SO that it can stand
up. The clothes are only painted ones,
its arms are not iointed, and the only
thing that can be taken off is the head,
which is fastened into the body with q
peg. Common wooden .ointed dolls
are made mostly in Germany by poor
people, who white them OUT by hand.
